Merry Christmas greetings from the Rok Kern team! We hope this end of year report find you well and getting into the spirit of the season.
As the year draws to a close, we at Rok Kern just wanted to say thank you for your support through out this year 2022. Thanks for your enthusiasm and generosity and for being with us through this journey. With your help, we were able to run 5 children belong in families workshops, 1 workshop in "Ethical Communication," 4 courses that were contextualized into the local context and language, and other marketing materials have been developed.
Beside that, we were able to build a wider network through ACCI, Better Care Network, and the CAFO alliance. We distributed the resources we created not only to the networks mentioned above, but also to other local NGOs such as the Chabdai-Learng Forum and GHR grantees. As 2023 approaches, please continue to pray for us and join the movement to shift from orphanage care to family-based care advocacy.
As we see a need for both locals and visitors to learn more about how to create "ethical short-term trips and volunteering," as well as raise awareness about the harms of institutional care for vulnerable children and the benefits of family-based care, Rok Kern would like you to join us on this journey, pray for us, and share the Rok Kern learning hub with your networks, as our Rok Kern Workshop participants would.
A quote from Rok Kern participant!
"Children Belong In Families" is an awareness and advocacy lesson designed to help people learn more about the harms of institutional care for children. It consists of evidence, research, and practices of care. So this course needs to train the local authorities, church leaders, university students, and even social workers. "It needs to be shared in a global context so that we can create system-level change to protect vulnerable children and families."
The Rok Kern Team has been inspired by the way people react to and interact with our course and enjoy learning a new perspective that has changed the community.
We are truly grateful for your support and walk along side us!
We are looking forward to catching up in 2023!
Best Regards!
Rok Kern Team!
